i raised rabbits for my 4-h project and i still raise them today. i am starting my 3yr old daughter on them right now. she did her first show last yr at my hometown county fair and got 1st place along with a trophy. even though she was the only one that did it i was proud of her for it.

I participate in all of the leadership activities I can! I like to be the leader, I have been called a "born-leader". I can take orders, but I prefer to be the one giving the orders! I know 4-H has helped shape me into a great leader and I know I will continue my leadership in the last few years of my 4-H career!!

Greg, I agree with you very much, in fact we are having our County Fair from April 13-17 at our State Fair grounds.

Rachel, I’m the son of a former 4-H'er. but was never a member myself. I am proud to say that my local 4-H chapter at Granville High School (NY) just took fourth place in the National $-H T-Shirt contest. Should any of your group have any questions about Firefighting, or Corrections which is my job that pays the bill, I would be more than happy to help in any way.

I have been in 4-H for 9 years. I still have 3 1/2 years left!! I live on a farm, but I prefer the citizenship, community sevice, and leadership project areas. My favorite event is 4-H Mock Legislature! It is held every summer at the Florida Capital, for a week. Last year I was a lobbyist and this year I get to be a Representitive!!I can't wait!!

We both had projects that went to the state fair several times. Even my did got involve with our club by letting us us the farm for the gardening and mom let us use our house for meetings.
